Packer is dead
The art of bowling has been eradicated absolutely
Hell, even the art of batting was absent from that game as the pitch and the ground itself seemed to simply expel balls
It was a game without a people, there were no players, no personality, no heroes – just a gound violently expelling balls into a crowd
crowd witnessed an incredible event, an apotheosis, something transcendant, fateful, a display of brilliant fate
mother of god everything operating perfectly
every gamble paid off
everyone, everything was choking with emotion at the sheer beauty of it all
for 1 day cricket where to from here…
